Ladywriter 7,783 Report post Posted February 19, 2010 ‘Well, Mr. Big Brother IRS man, let's try something different’ AUSTIN, Texas - "If you’re reading this, you’re no doubt asking yourself, 'Why did this have to happen?' The simple truth is that it is complicated and has been coming for a long time." So began a lengthy, rambling anti-government Web message believed posted by a Texas man suspected of crashing his small plane into an office building housing IRS employees, killing at least one other person and wounding several others. The man, identified by federal law enforcement officials as Joseph Stack, 53, was a software engineer who had a long-running grudge with the Internal Revenue Service.

Myk JL 1,731 Report post Posted February 19, 2010 Damn Domestic Terrorism... I wonder if security can get any worse in this country... Those who fight deplorables should see to it that they themselves do not become deplorables. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slippers 3,168 Report post Posted February 20, 2010 This story died fast surprisingly. I don't know if it's because he wasn't a minority or there were too little casualties (thankfully) to care. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ladywriter 7,783 Report post Posted February 20, 2010 early on officials were saying it wasn't terrorism just a nut, they don't want to classify it as domestic terrorism cuz then we got another attack on Obamas watch. Not as if there is much the govt can do about pissed off people with the means and determination to freak out like this. Terrorism, treason, rebellion, call it whatever ya want he did it to make a stand against current government policy and the corporate ownage of America.

Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted February 20, 2010 The government likes to quiet down stories about people actually attacking the government physically. While they can spin rallies and protests to their own liking, they can't put any kind of spin on a local guy suicide bombing a plane into a government building. If he was a minority they'd have probably falsified some documents saying he was also from Yeman or Iran. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dubird 6,815 Report post Posted February 21, 2010 I wouldn't call it terrorism because it wasn't aimed towards creating panic and terror among the citizens. The guy had a grudge towards the IRS and felt that doing this would wake up other people in the nation to try and do something about the crappy tax system. Yesterday was the deadline for all complaints! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torreyjs 64 Report post Posted March 15, 2010 Americas tax system is pretty lenient compared to other western nations that arent 3rd world shit holes. Whatever message and claim to legitimacy this guy had was thrown out the window when he burned his home down (making his family homeless), getting rid of all other assets, and killing innocent people because he was upset the IRS ass raped him for taxes when they found out the fake religion he had set up was only for evading said taxes. He got mad for being busted as a fraud and thats all there is to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
